in Lithuania we call commie block neighbourhood as “sleeping neighbourhood” since they were built far away from industrial areas where you would do your work and come back to sleep and nothing else. Many of these places also lack other infrastructure besides schools. But i agree with you on everything you listed

lots of these events that have occurred might have happened out of inertia. It might be that russians miscalculated and the war in Ukraine should have ended by now, and all these actions are part of a bigger plan

Historically it has been offered to Lithuania few times and every time the offer was declined. There’s a lot of ethnic Russians and with Lithuania having small population would had caused many internal problems probably similar events as in Crimea would had happened and struggle for the independence had been much harder.

We are living in the most developed and peaceful tunes/times. Our great grandparents did not have antibiotics, child mortality was very high. Around 150 years ago, slavery and serfdom was hapenning, so instead of staring itno Outlook or Teams, you would be doing life crushing and dehumanising work. Much off the stuff that was out of reeach by lower or middle class is much more affordable today, even basic stuff such as meat was scarce in my grand parents time (ussr). 100 years ago most people saw only around 30 km around their land, or as much as horse could walk in a day, but now traveling is very affordable. I am hopeful that besides all the political crap we are moving towards even more developed future

The audacity of Russia and lack of power in EU. When they sent troops, they did not ask for any permission, they just did it. But when there’s talks of sending western forces to maintain ceasefire we are seeking for permission from Russia and debating whether such is needed at all.

People are pissed that they can’t afford rent, where housing is inflated by massive profits of short-term renting. You see more tourists than before, you just want them gone that’s all

Did a quick read on wiki and turns out, all the starlings (millions) in North America are descendants of 80 starlings released on 1890 in NYC central park. Crazy

Vilnius, Lithuania. 3 different shops 5 min walk from home. And its not even high density urban area. I shop almost every day

whoever designed the flag probably figured they have to add all the colors, so all of them would feel included and none of them would feel offended

my seasoning flaked off and it became metallic appearance. I was struggling with obtaining stable seasoning, but found a reddit post that suggesting Blueing process. You heat-up your clean wok a lot with no-oil the iron reacts with oxygen to form magnetite Fe3O4 which holds seasoning much better. After you blue your wok, you season it by heating up some oil, but generally it seasons itself diring usage. If something starts sticking, more oil and more heat usually does the job.

Peel it and eat it raw. I love the crunchy starchy earthy taste of a raw potato
